My first job as a licensed massage therapist, I traveled with my table to different Hotels and Resorts in Phoenix, Arizona. I worked on famous athletes, business people, all different types of folks. A little over a year later, I began working at a high paced resort in Scottsdale, Arizona. I really enjoyed the spa atmosphere so I decided to move home to Central Oregon and open my own massage practice. Which was awesome! Eventually, the recession slowed my business and I found my way to a chiropractor in Albany, Oregon. It was him and I in the beginning and then the practice morphed into a booming 4 massage therapist/2 doctor practice. While I was living and working in Albany, I came home to my brother-in-law’s birthday party, where I happened to meet my future husband. We married and moved for his job to Grants Pass for 2 years. His job also brought us back to the Valley eight years ago and we absolutely love it!
